The DT is hopping tonight and there is a lot of inspiration to see for my cards I used the upcoming January KOTM if you have not joined this amazing monthly kit now is the time as the price for these kits will be going up In January.

I really cannot say enough about these kits they are so awesome so many great images and sentiments in each kit!!!

So for all of my cards today I colored them with my prisma colored pencils. I still need practice with these pencils but I know I do need to break them out more!!!

Also there are some great promotions going on so be sure to check those out as well!!!

So I have a fun little project to share with you today. I love finding new ways to use my stamps and I found this fun little Flipbook tutorial over on YouTube just do a search of flipbooks and there will be a ton of videos.

I did not go to crazy with mine it is basically a book that you can make out of envelopes and just added a lot of fun elements to decorate it with.

I made mine with the idea of using some really inspirational quotes from this Donna Downey kit called Imperfection is Beauty.

Than to decorate my book I just used some fun papers and diecuts super fun I made this for my daughter.

So today is a bittersweet moment for me as this is my last post for Newton's Nook I am so sad for this but so very grateful to Newton's Nook!! I have been beyond lucky to have served as a DT member for them for the past couple of years it has been an amazing adventure that I will always hold dear to my heart!! I will miss them incredibly but I am so excited to see new designers and what's to come for Newton's Nook in the future they are an amazing company!!!

Thank You from the bottom of my heart Jen and Jeff!!!

So onto my card it is because of their great stamps that I have been able to make some great creations over the past couple of years!!!

This set we are showcasing today is called Joyful Tags and it coordinates with the dies that were released last year.

The box I repurposed is something that came with embellishments in it and already had dividers so it was perfect and I just decorated the box with some Christmas papers and just made a whole bunch of tags this was so much fun to make!!!

Here is the inside of the box with some unfinished tags that I can put together at a later time.

This set will be given away to ONE lucky winner!

Thursday, November 10, 2016

So today we are having a fun little blog hop for unity we have some amazing new releases along with some great how to's from the DT!!!

I don't know about you but I always love to see the process of how someone makes their cards and I am sharing a little of mine with you today!!! My process usually begins with the stamp and I love these sentiment stamps because it allows me to use that stuff I have been hoarding way to long lol. I than just pick out my papers that I want to use and if you know me at all you know that I adore my pattern paper I usually try to stick with the same paper pad or collection. I than just like to find fun bits to go with my paper and my card that I want to design and I lay it all out and than just start the process of putting my card together and that is it pretty simple!!

Here is the finished card love the way it came out super pretty and simple!!
